Pakistan want neutral umpires for their one-day series against England and India this season.
At present, under International Cricket Council rules, only one third-country umpire is required to stand in a one-dayer while the other umpire comes from the home country.
But the Pakistan Cricket Board director of operations, Saleem Altaf, said he would ask the England and Wales Cricket Board for neutral umpires for the series.
"We will make this proposal in our meeting with them on Tuesday that we go ahead with this experiment and include this in the Memorandum of Understanding of playing conditions," Altaf told Reuters on Monday.
"We want to do this with the cooperation of the ECB and Indian Boards," he said.
England will play three Tests and five One-Day Internationals (ODI) in Pakistan on a tour starting on October 22. India will play the same number of matches in Pakistan at the beginning of 2006.
Altaf said the PCB had been told the ICC would have no objection if Pakistan experimented with neutral umpires in their home series with the consent of England and India.
ECB official John Carr and Richard Bevan, a representative of the England players' association, are due to meet Altaf in Lahore on Tuesday to finalise the England tour itinerary.
